Amany Attia, managing director and head of structured finance at Lehman Brothers in London, has no doubt as to why the US firm has been behind some of the most structurally innovative deals in the ABS market this year. “Our team is unique in that we have all been consistently doing this for a long time,” she explains – adding that the combined experience of the team members (who have all been at Lehman for more than 10 years) gives the firm its competitive edge.
